A variable is a letter representing a number (ex. 2a+8h=26 ..... a=5 & h=2 )

"Solving'' an inequality means finding all of its solutions. A "solution'' of an inequality is a number which when substituted for the variable makes the inequality a true statement.

Here is an example: Consider the inequality <span />

When we substitute 8 for x, the inequality becomes 8-2 > 5. Thus, x=8 is a solution of the inequality

2n-4 < 3n                                        
+4
2n+4-4<3n+4
2n<3n+4

<span> </span>


-3n
2n-3n<4
-n<4
/-1
n>-4

X will represent unknown
2x-4<3x
treat the < sign as a = sign
2x-4=3x
subtract 2x form both sides
-4=x
put the < sign back
-4<x
-4 is less than than x or
x is greater than -4

HELP ASAP NOW NOW NOW NOW!!! Suppose three riders rode a total of 182 miles.
Sav [38]

Answer:

14 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming each horse was only ridden once

then a total of 13 horses were ridden for a total of 182 miles

182 miles / 13 horses  = 14  miles  horse

Of course, if each horse was ridden more than once before being replaced the distance between replacements could be reduced.

Note that the fact that there were 3 riders is irrelevant.
